Romans 1:5-20

⁵by whom we have received grace and the office of apostle or apostle-hood, to obey to the faith in all folks, for his name,

⁶among which ye be also called of Jesus Christ,

⁷to all that be at Rome, darlings or the beloved of God, and called holy, grace be to you, and peace of God our Father, and of the Lord Jesus Christ.

⁸First I do thankings to my God, by Jesus Christ, for all you, for your faith is showed in all the world.

⁹For God is a witness to me, to whom I serve in my spirit, in the gospel of his Son, that without ceasing I make mind of you evermore in my prayers,

¹⁰and beseech or praying, if in any manner sometime I have a speedy way in the will of God to come to you.

¹¹For I desire to see you, to impart somewhat to you of spiritual grace or that I give to you something of spiritual grace, that ye be confirmed,

¹²that is, to be comforted together in you, by that faith that is both yours and mine together.

¹³And, brethren, I will not, that ye not know, that oft I purposed to come to you, and I am hindered till this time, that I have some fruit in you, as in other folks.

¹⁴To Greeks and to barbarians, to wise men and to unwise men, I am debtor,

¹⁵so that that is in me is ready to preach the gospel or to evangelize also to you that be at Rome.

¹⁶For I shame not the gospel, for it is the virtue of God into health, to each man that believeth, to the Jew first, and to the Greek.

¹⁷For the rightwiseness of God is showed in it, of faith into faith, as it is written, For a just man liveth of faith.

¹⁸For the wrath of God is showed from heaven on all unpiety and wickedness or unrightwiseness of those men, that withhold or hold aback the truth of God in unrightwiseness.

¹⁹For that thing of God that is known, is showed or is made open to them, for God hath showed to them.

²⁰For the invisible things of him, that be understood, be beheld of the creature of the world, by those things that be made, yea, and the everlasting virtue of him, and the Godhead, so that they may not be excused or they be unexcusable.
